背景background

本发明总地涉及一种结构节点,更具体地涉及一种节点板连接,其允许连接的结构构件之间有更大的相对运动,并且简化了现场的建造。The present invention relates generally to structural joints, and more particularly to a gusset plate connection that allows greater relative movement between connected structural members and simplifies construction on site.

图1A示出了现有技术中在框架支撑结构中的典型的节点板连接。水平结构构件Bm(梁)连接至垂直结构构件C(柱)。为将对角结构构件Br(即支撑)连接至梁柱组件,使用了节点板G。支撑(通过例如销、螺栓)连接至节点板,然后节点板通常通过焊接方式连接至梁和柱。长度Lcc是柱C在节点板G的两端部之间的净长度,而长度Lbc是梁Bm在节点板G的两端部之间的净长度。Figure 1A shows a typical gusset plate connection in a frame support structure in the prior art. Horizontal structural members Bm (beams) are connected to vertical structural members C (columns). To connect the diagonal structural member Br (ie brace) to the beam-column assembly, gusset plate G is used. The braces are connected (by eg pins, bolts) to the gusset plates, which are then usually welded to the beams and columns. The length Lcc is the clear length of the column C between the two ends of the gusset plate G, and the length Lbc is the clear length of the beam Bm between the two ends of the gusset plate G.

现有技术中的节点板可被焊在梁和柱上,其改进的是产生了固定性,使梁Bm和柱C之间不可能有相对运动。在实践中,这导致在梁和柱的局部产生大的内力。图1B示出了在梁Bm和柱C中的各自的弯矩Mb/Mc,以及在梁Bm和柱C中的各自的剪切力Vb/Vc,这是在使用了螺栓连接/焊接的节点板G的结构的结果。还示出了支撑Br的弯矩Mbr和剪切力Vbr。图1B示出了在梁Bm和柱C之间的螺栓连接的构造,如图1C所示,同样的受力发生在焊接连接的(以及焊接和螺栓共同连接的)构造中。The gusset plates of the prior art can be welded to the beams and columns, the improvement of which produces a fixation so that relative movement between the beam Bm and the column C is impossible. In practice, this results in large internal forces locally in the beams and columns. Figure 1B shows the respective bending moments M b /M c in beam Bm and column C, and the respective shear forces V b /V c in beam Bm and column C, which are obtained using bolted connections / Welded results of the structure of the gusset plate G. The bending moment M br and shear force V br supporting Br are also shown. Figure 1B shows the configuration of the bolted connection between the beam Bm and the column C, and as shown in Figure 1C, the same stresses occur in the welded (and welded and bolted joint) configuration.

剪切力Vb与弯矩Mb和梁的净长度LbC成正比(即Vb∝Mb/bc)。同样地,剪切力Vc与弯矩Mc和柱的净长度Lcc成正比(即,Vc∝Mc/Lcc)。增加节点板的宽度和高度来加强节点直接缩短了梁的净长度LbC和柱的净长度Lcc,这又在通过外力(例如,风、地震等)施加于结构上同样的弯矩Mb和Mc时使得剪切力Vb和Vc变得更大。在极端情形中,如果现有技术的连接部件没有据此设计,这些大的内力可折断梁、梁柱螺栓/焊接结构、柱和/或节点板焊缝。然而,如果全部现有技术的连接部件都被设计成能承受大的内力,那么结构的重量、材料要求和成本会明显地增加。The shear force V b is proportional to the bending moment M b and the net length L bC of the beam (ie V b ∝ M b / bc ). Likewise, the shear force V c is proportional to the bending moment M c and the net length L cc of the column (ie, V c ∝ M c /L cc ). Strengthening the joint by increasing the width and height of the gusset plate directly shortens the net length of the beam L bC and the net length of the column L cc , which in turn acts upon the same bending moment M b imposed on the structure by external forces (eg, wind, earthquake, etc.) And M c makes the shear force V b and V c become larger. In extreme cases, these large internal forces can break beams, beam-column bolted/welded structures, columns and/or gusset plate welds if prior art connecting components are not designed accordingly. However, if all prior art connecting parts are designed to withstand large internal forces, the weight, material requirements and costs of the structure will increase significantly.

具体实施方式Detailed ways

本发明的具体实施例包括对其所连接的如梁和柱的所有部件增加最小应力的角撑板。在这种情况下,通过增加我们的节点板,梁、柱和支撑经受最少的其应力增加。从而,现有技术的节点板的优点(使支撑梁能够联接至柱和梁节点)得到保持,而现有技术的节点板的有害力(由于大的地震类似力)传递属性大部分被消除。因此,对于具有梁/柱/支撑节点的结构,当被施加了外力(例如,地震力)时,本发明的节点板不会将梁的运动传递至柱、柱的运动传递至梁、以及支撑的运动传递至梁和/或柱,而标准的节点板连接则会。因而,如果没有本发明的节点板,在柱、梁和支撑之间会发生力的传递,而是会类似连接全部三个构件的工作点的真实的动态载荷。在一些具体实施例中,与现有技术的节点板相比,本发明的节点板本身还可具有更小的应力。全部这些优点通过使用本发明的节点板连接允许在连接的构件之间有更大的相对运动而实现。Particular embodiments of the invention include gussets that add minimal stress to all components to which they are attached, such as beams and columns. In this case, beams, columns and braces experience a minimal increase in their stresses by adding our gusset plates. Thus, the advantages of prior art gusset plates (enabling support beams to be coupled to column and beam joints) are maintained, while the detrimental force (due to large earthquake-like forces) transfer properties of prior art gusset plates are largely eliminated. Therefore, for structures with beam/column/bracing joints, when an external force (e.g., seismic force) is applied, the gusset plate of the present invention will not transfer the motion of the beam to the column, the motion of the column to the beam, and the brace The motion of the gusset plate is transferred to the beam and/or column, whereas a standard gusset plate connection would. Thus, without the gusset plate of the present invention, the transfer of forces between the columns, beams and braces would occur, but would resemble a true dynamic load at the work point connecting all three members. In some embodiments, the gusset plate of the present invention may also itself have less stress than prior art gusset plates. All of these advantages are achieved by allowing greater relative movement between the connected members using the gusset plate connection of the present invention.

本发明的具体实施例提供了用于连接钢框架建筑中的柱、梁和斜杆支撑构件的节点板。节点板允许柱和梁保持并支撑用于成三角形载荷的斜杆支撑,如标准的现有技术的节点板通常期待的那样。此外,节点板还允许柱、梁和斜杆支撑受极端的动力载荷作用时相互之间独立地移动,这样的动力载荷可能是强风或地震的结果,并还可能导致现有技术的节点被破坏。Particular embodiments of the present invention provide gusset plates for connecting column, beam and diagonal support members in steel frame buildings. The gusset plate allows the columns and beams to hold and support the diagonal struts for triangular loads, as is normally expected with standard prior art gusset plates. In addition, gusset plates allow column, beam and diagonal braces to move independently of each other when subjected to extreme dynamic loads, which may be the result of strong winds or earthquakes, and may also cause prior art joints to fail .

因此,相对于现有技术的节点板,本发明的节点板不会将梁的(显著的)运动传递至柱,反之亦然,因而节点板不会放大和/或传递动力载荷。例如,作用在柱上的摇摆矩会期望它移动,并且在某种程度上,移至与其连接的梁上,然而本发明的节点板不会传递摇摆矩到梁上,因而不会放大由现有技术的节点板引起的运动的效应。本发明的节点板可包括活动地或固定地连接到柱上的第一节点板部分和活动地或固定地连接到梁上的第二节点板部分。这些节点板部分不是彼此直接连接,而是活动地、固定地和/或转动地连接到斜杆支撑上。Thus, in contrast to prior art gusset plates, the gusset plate of the present invention does not transmit (significant) movement of the beam to the column and vice versa, and thus the gusset plate does not amplify and/or transmit dynamic loads. For example, a sway moment acting on a column would expect it to move, and to some extent, to a beam connected to it, whereas the gusset plate of the present invention does not transfer sway moments to the beam and thus does not amplify the The effect of the movement induced by the technical gusset plate. The gusset plate of the present invention may comprise a first gusset plate portion movably or fixedly connected to the column and a second gusset plate portion movably or fixedly connected to the beam. These gusset plate sections are not directly connected to each other, but are movably, fixedly and/or rotatably connected to the diagonal struts.

作为此处使用的,“活动地连接”或“活动的”或“移动连接”被理解为指的是在两个或多个结构构件之间的连接,其允许在极端的动力载荷下,在构件之间有水平和/或垂直的相对运动。这样的连接通常不允许在静载荷或一般的动力载荷(例如,来自轻度/中等的风力所施加的那样)下运动。相对于现有技术的螺栓的节点板,“活动地连接”应该被理解为允许运动适当地超过钻孔公差。一个活动的连接的实施例是在长槽内有固定的螺栓,它被固定成在静载荷或一般的动力载荷下不移动,但是在极端的动力载荷下可在长槽内移动。因此,此处描述的长槽螺栓连接应该被理解为活动的连接。还应该理解的是,在公开了长槽的连接的情况下,只需要一个连接的部分(例如,节点板、支撑)包括长槽,以提供活动的连接。然而,一些实施例中,至少一个或全部连接部分包括提供活动的连接的长槽。As used herein, "movably connected" or "movable" or "mobile connection" is understood to mean a connection between two or more structural There is horizontal and/or vertical relative movement between components. Such connections generally do not allow movement under static loads or generally dynamic loads (eg as imposed from light/moderate wind forces). With respect to the prior art bolted gussets, "movably connected" should be understood as allowing movement well beyond borehole tolerances. An example of a movable connection is a fixed bolt in the slot, which is fixed so as not to move under static or normal dynamic loads, but movable in the slot under extreme dynamic loads. Therefore, the slotted bolt connection described here should be understood as a movable connection. It should also be understood that where a slotted connection is disclosed, only one of the connected parts (eg, gusset, brace) needs to include the slot to provide a movable connection. However, in some embodiments, at least one or all of the connecting portions include elongated slots that provide a movable connection.

此处使用的“固定地连接的”或“固定连接”或“非活动地连接的”被理解为指的是在两个或更多结构构件之间的连接不是构造成提供相对运动(超越了现有技术的螺栓节点板所提供的)。一一个固定连接的实施例是焊接连结或螺栓连接,以及有些情况下的焊缝和螺栓连接。在某种程度上,螺栓孔公差可允许有限的运动,然而在高载荷下这可能发生或不发生,并且当然会被限制,因而最终类似焊接连接。因此,此处描述的焊接连结和螺栓连接(不带有长槽)应该被假设为固定连接。As used herein, "fixedly connected" or "fixedly connected" or "non-movably connected" is understood to mean that a connection between two or more structural members is not configured to provide relative movement (beyond provided by prior art bolted gussets). An example of a fixed connection is a welded joint or a bolted connection, and in some cases welded seams and bolted connections. To some extent, the bolt hole tolerance may allow limited movement, however under high loads this may or may not occur and will of course be limited, thus ultimately resembling a welded connection. Therefore, welded joints and bolted joints (without slots) described here should be assumed to be fixed joints.

此处使用的“转动连接的”或“可转动的连接”或“转动连接”被理解为指的是在两个或更多个结构构件之间的连接,其允许在各构件之间有转动相对运动。可转动的连接的实施例是销连接。因此,此处描述的销连接应该被假设为转动连接。然而,具有位于间隙内的销的节点板组件会允许转动的、水平的和/或垂直的相对运动。As used herein, "rotationally connected" or "rotatable connection" or "rotational connection" is understood to mean a connection between two or more structural members which permits rotation between the members relative movement. An example of a rotatable connection is a pin connection. Therefore, the pin connection described here should be assumed to be a rotational connection. However, a gusset plate assembly with pins located within the gap would allow rotational, horizontal and/or vertical relative movement.

此处使用的“力”或“地震类似力”或“潜在的破坏力”被理解为从外部施加于建筑结构上的动态力,其远超过通过常规的风和移动的内在的建筑物荷载施加的动力载荷。这样的力可由地震、飓风、海啸等等施加而来。"Force" or "earthquake-like force" or "potentially destructive force" as used herein is understood to be a dynamic force exerted on a building structure from the outside which far exceeds that exerted by intrinsic building loads through conventional wind and movement dynamic load. Such forces may be exerted by earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, and the like.

根据本发明的一个具体实施例,图2A示出了通过节点板组件200连接的梁-柱-支撑。节点板组件200包括由间隙分隔的两个节点板200a/200b。间隙会足够的宽,以提供两个节点板200a/200b的充分的自由运动,而没有碰撞。在一些具体实施例中,间隙的宽度范围从12mm-300mm,或更常见的,在25mm-100mm之间。节点板200b通过例如对其焊接被固定地连接到梁Bm,并且类似地,节点板200a被焊接到柱C。斜撑Br利用多个螺栓202被螺栓连接到两个节点板上。一般地,柱C、梁Bm和支撑Br为预制的结构构件,例如I形梁或管。应理解,术语“螺栓”意味着包括各种紧固件,例如螺栓/螺母组合、螺钉、铆钉等等。节点板200a/200b可用如钢板或复合材料之类的高强度材料来制造。节点板200a/200b的厚度及其他尺寸可按照待建造的具体结构的要求,用和现有技术的节点板一样的方法得到。Figure 2A illustrates beam-column-braces connected by gusset plate assemblies 200, according to a specific embodiment of the invention. The gusset plate assembly 200 includes two gusset plates 200a/200b separated by a gap. The gap will be wide enough to provide sufficient free movement of the two gusset plates 200a/200b without collision. In some embodiments, the width of the gap ranges from 12mm-300mm, or more commonly, between 25mm-100mm. The gusset plate 200b is fixedly connected to the beam Bm by, for example, welding it, and similarly the gusset plate 200a is welded to the column C. The brace Br is bolted to the two gusset plates with a plurality of bolts 202 . Typically, the columns C, beams Bm and braces Br are prefabricated structural members such as I-beams or tubes. It should be understood that the term "bolt" is meant to include various fasteners such as bolt/nut combinations, screws, rivets, and the like. The gusset plate 200a/200b may be fabricated from a high strength material such as steel plate or composite material. The thickness and other dimensions of the gusset plate 200a/200b can be obtained in the same way as the prior art gusset plate according to the requirements of the specific structure to be built.

多个螺栓202被活动地连接在节点板200a/200b和斜撑Br的长槽螺栓孔204内。安装时,长槽螺栓孔204垂直于所示的间隙G的中心线,并因而总体上关于结构有角度地定向。在一些具体实施例中,可能使用曲形槽。间隙和长槽204允许节点板200a/200b相对于彼此移动。因此,梁Bm和柱C能够有效地相对于彼此运动(因为它们被固定地连接到节点板200a/200b上),好像节点板不存在一样,并因而围绕梁Bm和柱C的中心线相交处的工作点WP1转动。替代的工作点WP2位于间隙G的中心线与梁Bm和柱C节点实际上相交处。这一配置防止施加于柱C和梁Bm的相应动态载荷经由节点板202a/202b彼此传递。A plurality of bolts 202 are movably connected in slotted bolt holes 204 of the gusset plate 200a/200b and the brace Br. When installed, the slotted bolt holes 204 are perpendicular to the centerline of the gap G as shown, and thus are generally angularly oriented with respect to the structure. In some embodiments, curved slots may be used. The gap and slot 204 allow the gusset plates 200a/200b to move relative to each other. Thus, beam Bm and column C are effectively able to move relative to each other (since they are fixedly connected to the gusset plate 200a/200b) as if the gusset plate did not exist, and thus around the intersection of the centerlines of beam Bm and column C The working point WP1 rotates. The alternate work point WP2 is located where the centerline of the gap G actually intersects the beam Bm and column C joints. This configuration prevents the respective dynamic loads applied to the columns C and beams Bm from being transferred to each other via the gusset plates 202a/202b.

在一些实施例中,螺栓使用大垫圈通过代替长槽的过大孔被固定到节点板的表面。聚合物、橡胶或柔软的金属O形环可位于该过大孔内,来帮助对中螺栓和/或吸收冲击、振动和力。长槽204内的螺栓可被拧紧到按照现有技术连接达到的程度,而且有些情况下较小些或较大些。可以预期,地震类似力会大到使得螺栓紧密度成为非关键因素。当潜在地破坏力被施加于节点板组件200时,它不会表现出如图1A描述的方式,图1A中弯矩引起的剪切力由于节点板的存在而被放大了。In some embodiments, the bolts are secured to the face of the gusset plate using large washers through oversized holes instead of long slots. A polymer, rubber or soft metal O-ring may be located within the oversized hole to help center the bolt and/or absorb shock, vibration and force. The bolts in the elongated slots 204 can be tightened to the extent that connections according to the prior art can be made, and in some cases smaller or larger. It can be expected that earthquake-like forces will be so great that bolt tightness is not a critical factor. When potentially destructive forces are applied to the gusset plate assembly 200, it does not behave in the manner described in FIG. 1A, where the moment-induced shear forces are amplified by the presence of the gusset plate.

在一些实施例中,只有斜撑Br或节点板200a/200b包括有长槽,而其它的包括用于螺栓直接固定到其上的螺纹孔。In some embodiments, only the braces Br or gussets 200a/200b include slots, while others include threaded holes for bolts to be fastened directly thereto.

本发明的一个优点是能够在车间里(即,非建筑工地)将节点板202a/202b焊接到梁Bm和柱C上,并且使用螺栓202在现场简单地安装各部件(即,在建筑工地现场安装螺栓)。图1中的现有技术的配置要求在建筑工地焊接,与车间焊接相比,这是更不可靠且更不精确的、更不易控制、更昂贵,并且更耗时。在理想状况中,结构构件尽可能被预制,并且在建筑工地上几乎没有通过焊接进行的结构连接。由于这些原因及其他原因,在建筑业中更强烈地偏爱车间焊接然后现场安装螺栓。One advantage of the present invention is that it is possible to weld the gusset plate 202a/202b to the beam Bm and column C in a workshop (i.e. not at the building site) and to simply install the components on site using the bolts 202 (i.e. at the site at the building site). mounting bolts). The prior art arrangement in Figure 1 requires welding at the construction site, which is less reliable and less precise, less controllable, more expensive, and more time consuming than shop welding. Ideally, the structural elements are as prefabricated as possible and there are almost no structural connections by welding on the building site. For these reasons and others, there is a stronger preference for shop welding followed by field installation of bolts in the construction industry.

图2B示出了与图2A相同的配置,在节点板200b上的一组长槽螺栓孔204垂直于梁Bm的中心线,并且因而总体上关于结构垂直地定向。在节点板200a上的另一组长槽孔204垂直于柱C的中心线,并且因而总体上关于结构水平地定向。Figure 2B shows the same configuration as Figure 2A, with a set of slotted bolt holes 204 on the gusset plate 200b perpendicular to the centerline of the beam Bm, and thus generally vertically oriented with respect to the structure. Another set of slotted holes 204 on the gusset plate 200a is perpendicular to the centerline of the column C, and thus generally horizontally oriented with respect to the structure.

这么配置仍然允许图2A提供的梁Bm和柱C的相对运动,而且可用来隔离从支撑Br传递至梁Bm和柱C的力。因为在节点板202b上的螺栓孔200是垂直的,所以在板上的螺栓承力的情况下,垂直运动是允许的(没有力的传递),并且力只能被水平地传递。在节点板202a上存在相似情况,其中在板上的螺栓承力的情况下,横向移动是允许的(没有力的传递),并且力只能被垂直地传递。因而,在梁Bm处的固定连接(例如,焊缝)只接收水平力(平行于焊缝),而在柱C处的固定连接(例如,焊缝)只接收垂直力(平行于固定连接)。This configuration still allows the relative motion of beam Bm and column C provided in Figure 2A, and can be used to isolate the forces transmitted from support Br to beam Bm and column C. Because the bolt holes 200 in the gusset plate 202b are vertical, vertical movement is allowed (no force transmission) with the bolts on the plate under load, and forces can only be transmitted horizontally. A similar situation exists on the gusset plate 202a, where lateral movement is allowed (no force transmission) with the bolts on the plate under load, and forces can only be transmitted vertically. Thus, the fixed connection (e.g., weld) at beam Bm receives only horizontal force (parallel to the weld), while the fixed connection (e.g., weld) at column C receives only vertical force (parallel to the fixed connection) .

图2C和2D示出了节点板组件200的端视图。如图所示,支撑Br可被活动地连接到节点板202a/202b的仅仅一侧,如图2C所描绘的。或者,如图2D所描绘的那样,支撑Br可被活动地连接到节点板202a/202b的两侧。2C and 2D show end views of the gusset plate assembly 200 . As shown, the brace Br may be movably connected to only one side of the gusset plate 202a/202b, as depicted in Figure 2C. Alternatively, as depicted in Figure 2D, the braces Br may be movably connected to both sides of the gusset plate 202a/202b.

图2E示出了一实施例,其中只有一块节点板包括有长槽204,而另一块节点板被固定地连接(例如,螺栓连接和/或焊接)。Figure 2E shows an embodiment in which only one gusset plate includes elongated slots 204 and the other gusset plate is fixedly connected (eg, bolted and/or welded).

图3A和3B示出了如图2A和2B分别示出的节点板组件200的可替换的节点板组件300。此处,那些组件之间的主要区别是支撑Br被设置成锐角,因而节点板302a/302b不是关于分隔中心线CL对称。如图所示,节点板302a/302b构造成分隔中心线CL相交于工作点WP1。因此,节点板302a比节点板302b更大。可替换地,分隔中心线CL可以平行移动的方式,与如图2A所示的WP2相交。这一替代实施例能在节点板302a/302b之间产生比所示的更接近中央的间隙。在全部其它方面,节点板组件300可以按照关于节点板组件200所公开的那样建造。Figures 3A and 3B illustrate an alternative gusset plate assembly 300 to that shown in Figures 2A and 2B, respectively. Here, the main difference between those components is that the braces Br are arranged at an acute angle and thus the gusset plates 302a/302b are not symmetrical about the dividing centerline CL. As shown, the gusset plates 302a/302b are configured such that the separating centerline CL intersects at the operating point WP1. Thus, gusset plate 302a is larger than gusset plate 302b. Alternatively, the dividing center line CL may intersect with WP2 as shown in FIG. 2A in a manner of moving in parallel. This alternate embodiment can create a more central gap between the gusset plates 302a/302b than shown. In all other respects, the gusset plate assembly 300 may be constructed as disclosed with respect to the gusset plate assembly 200 .

图4A和4B示出了如图3A和3B分别示出的节点板组件300的替换性的节点板组件400。此处,那些组件之间的主要区别是支撑Br被设置成钝角。如图所示,节点板302a/302b构造成使得分隔中心线CL相交于工作点WP1。因此,节点板402a比节点板402b更大。可替换地,分隔中心线CL可以平行移动的方式,与如图2A所示的WP2相交。该替代实施例能在节点板402a/402b之间产生比所示的更接近中央的间隙。在全部其它方面,节点板组件400可以按照关于节点板组件200所公开的那样建造。Figures 4A and 4B illustrate an alternative gusset plate assembly 400 to that shown in Figures 3A and 3B, respectively. Here, the main difference between those components is that the support Br is arranged at an obtuse angle. As shown, the gusset plates 302a/302b are configured such that the separating centerline CL intersects at the operating point WP1. Thus, gusset plate 402a is larger than gusset plate 402b. Alternatively, the dividing center line CL may intersect with WP2 as shown in FIG. 2A in a manner of moving in parallel. This alternative embodiment can create a more central gap between the gusset plates 402a/402b than shown. In all other respects, the gusset plate assembly 400 may be constructed as disclosed with respect to the gusset plate assembly 200 .

根据本发明的一具体实施例,图5示出了通过节点板组件500连接的梁-柱-支撑节点。此处,斜撑Br使用单个销502代替多个螺栓来连接至节点板组件500。为容纳销502,在每一节点板504a/504b上沿着间隙边缘制造有半圆形切口,以放置销。该连接由于间隙的存在而允许水平和垂直相对运动以及经由销500的转动相对运动,间隙在水平地和垂直地两个方向被间隔开。在全部其它方面,节点板组件500可以按照关于节点板组件200所公开的那样建造。Figure 5 shows a beam-column-bracing joint connected by a gusset plate assembly 500, according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. Here, the brace Br is connected to the gusset plate assembly 500 using a single pin 502 instead of multiple bolts. To accommodate the pins 502, semicircular cutouts are made in each gusset plate 504a/504b along the edge of the gap to accommodate the pins. This connection allows horizontal and vertical relative movement as well as rotational relative movement via the pin 500 due to the presence of gaps that are spaced apart in both directions, horizontally and vertically. In all other respects, the gusset plate assembly 500 may be constructed as disclosed with respect to the gusset plate assembly 200 .

根据本发明的一个具体实施例,图6A示出了通过节点板组件600连接的梁-柱-支撑组件。此处,节点板组件600包括第一短板(stub)602,其通过固定连接(例如,螺栓连接和/或焊接)被固定地连接到梁Bm上。第二短板604以相同的方式被固定地连接到柱C上。节点板606被固定地连接到支撑Br上。第一短板602和第二短板604可采用挤压材料,如钢“角铁”来建造。节点板606使用斜角定向(垂直于中心线CL)的长槽螺栓孔608被活动地连接到第一短板602上。水平和垂直间隙分别位于节点板606的边缘与梁Bm和柱C之间。这样的配置允许梁Bm和柱C有此处描述的相对运动,并且还提供了隔离从支撑Br传递到梁Bm和柱C力的额外的优点。Figure 6A shows a beam-column-brace assembly connected by a gusset plate assembly 600, according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. Here, the gusset plate assembly 600 includes a first stub 602 fixedly connected to the beam Bm by a fixed connection (eg, bolted and/or welded). The second short plate 604 is fixedly connected to the column C in the same manner. The gusset plate 606 is fixedly connected to the brace Br. The first short plate 602 and the second short plate 604 may be constructed from extruded material, such as steel "angle iron". Gusset plate 606 is movably connected to first short plate 602 using obliquely oriented (perpendicular to centerline CL) slotted bolt holes 608 . Horizontal and vertical gaps are located between the edge of the gusset plate 606 and the beam Bm and column C, respectively. Such an arrangement allows the relative motion of beam Bm and column C as described herein, and also provides the added advantage of isolating the forces transmitted from the brace Br to beam Bm and column C.

图6B示出了用于节点板组件600的第一短板604和第二短板606的替代配置。此处,节点板606使用垂直定向的长槽螺栓孔608被活动地连接到第一短板602上。类似地,节点板606使用水平定向的长槽螺栓孔608被活动地连接到第二短板604上。FIG. 6B shows an alternate configuration for the first short plate 604 and the second short plate 606 of the gusset plate assembly 600 . Here, gusset plate 606 is movably connected to first short plate 602 using vertically oriented slotted bolt holes 608 . Similarly, gusset plate 606 is movably connected to second short plate 604 using horizontally oriented slotted bolt holes 608 .

图6C和6D示出了支撑Br附连到节点板606上的替代配置。图6C示出了支撑Br处于螺栓连接构造。图6D示出了支撑Br通过可以旋转的大销钉销接到节点板上。6C and 6D show alternative configurations in which the brace Br is attached to the gusset plate 606 . Figure 6C shows the brace Br in a bolted configuration. Figure 6D shows that the brace Br is pinned to the gusset plate by a large pin that can rotate.

图6E、6F、6G和6H分别为用于将第一短板602和第二短板604附连至梁Bm和柱C的各种构造。图6E和6F分别示出了单侧的和双侧的短板附连构造,短板被焊接在梁Br或柱C上。图6G和6H分别示出了单侧的和双侧的短板连接构造,短板被螺栓连接在梁Br或柱C上。6E, 6F, 6G and 6H are various configurations for attaching the first short plate 602 and the second short plate 604 to the beam Bm and column C, respectively. Figures 6E and 6F show single-sided and double-sided short plate attachment configurations, respectively, with short plates welded to beams Br or columns C. Figures 6G and 6H show the single-sided and double-sided short plate connection configurations, respectively, where the short plate is bolted to the beam Br or column C.

根据本发明的一一个具体实施例,图7A示出了通过节点板组件700连接的梁-柱-支撑组件。节点板组件700与图2A中公开的类似。然而,此处的节点板组件700包括固定地附连于柱C的第一节点板702和固定地附连于梁Bm的第二节点板704。第一节点板702和第二节点板704从等分梁和柱的腹板的梁和柱的中心线偏移,使得第一节点板702和第二节点板704在不同的平面内彼此滑过。支撑Br通过使用成一定角度(垂直于中心线CL的中心线)布置的长槽孔706而被螺栓连接至两个节点板。Figure 7A shows a beam-column-brace assembly connected by a gusset plate assembly 700, according to a specific embodiment of the present invention. Gusset plate assembly 700 is similar to that disclosed in Figure 2A. Here, however, the gusset plate assembly 700 includes a first gusset plate 702 fixedly attached to the column C and a second gusset plate 704 fixedly attached to the beam Bm. The first gusset plate 702 and the second gusset plate 704 are offset from the centerline of the beam and column bisecting the web of the beam and column such that the first gusset plate 702 and the second gusset plate 704 slide past each other in different planes. The braces Br are bolted to the two gusset plates by using slotted holes 706 arranged at an angle (centerline perpendicular to the centerline CL).

图7B、7C和7D示出了节点板组件700的不同的配置。在图7B中,第一节点板702和第二节点板704如图7A所示布置,使得支撑Br位于它们之间。可选择地,第一节点板702和第二节点板704可如图7C所示的被布置成使得支撑Br的一侧是暴露的。在如此的配置中,第一节点板702和第二节点板704都被布置在柱C和梁Bm的腹板的同一侧。可选择地,如图7D所示,第一节点板702和第二节点板704可被布置成在内侧彼此接触,支撑Br被在两外侧放置。7B, 7C and 7D illustrate different configurations of the gusset plate assembly 700 . In FIG. 7B, the first gusset plate 702 and the second gusset plate 704 are arranged as shown in FIG. 7A such that the brace Br is located between them. Alternatively, the first gusset plate 702 and the second gusset plate 704 may be arranged such that one side of the support Br is exposed as shown in FIG. 7C . In such a configuration, both the first gusset plate 702 and the second gusset plate 704 are arranged on the same side of the web of the column C and beam Bm. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 7D , the first gusset plate 702 and the second gusset plate 704 may be arranged to contact each other on the inner side, and the braces Br are placed on both outer sides.

根据本发明的一个具体实施例,图8A示出了通过节点板组件800连接的梁-柱-支撑组件。节点板组件800与节点板组件700相似,但是此处的节点板802和804通过实体的销被相互连接至支撑Br。在节点板802和804中制造有过大的孔,其允许节点板垂直于支撑Br的中心线CL移动。类似于图7B-7D,图8B-8D分别示出了支撑Br可被夹在两个节点板802和804之间,或者盖在节点板802和804的一侧上,或者支撑Br具有叉端,可把两个节点板802和804夹在中间。Figure 8A shows a beam-column-brace assembly connected by a gusset plate assembly 800, according to a specific embodiment of the invention. The gusset plate assembly 800 is similar to the gusset plate assembly 700, but here the gusset plates 802 and 804 are interconnected to the brace Br by physical pins. Oversized holes are made in the gusset plates 802 and 804 which allow the gusset plates to move perpendicular to the centerline CL of the brace Br. Similar to Figures 7B-7D, Figures 8B-8D respectively show that the brace Br can be sandwiched between two gusset plates 802 and 804, or capped on one side of the gusset plates 802 and 804, or that the brace Br has forked ends , two gusset plates 802 and 804 can be sandwiched in the middle.

根据本发明的一个具体实施例,图9A示出了通过节点板组件900连接的梁-柱-支撑组件。图9A示出了本发明的一新的构造(类似于图6中描绘的实施例),节点板组件900具有三块板。第一板902被固定地连接到梁Bm,且第二板904被固定地连接到柱C。第三(或者主要)板906被固定地连接到支撑Br(在该实施例中为焊接)。第三板906通过垂直于支撑Br的中心线布置的长槽螺栓孔被活动地连接到第一板904。第三板906还通过垂直于支撑Br的中心线布置的长槽螺栓孔被活动地连接到第二板904。在第三板906的边缘与梁Bm和柱C两者之间都存在间隙。第三板906可被配备为单板部分,该单板部分螺栓连接到第一和第二板902/904的一侧,这样它只接触到第一和第二板的其中一个,或者第三板可被布置为两个板部分,把焊接在梁Bm和柱C上的第一和第二板902/904夹在中间。Figure 9A shows a beam-column-brace assembly connected by a gusset plate assembly 900, according to a specific embodiment of the invention. Figure 9A shows a new configuration of the invention (similar to the embodiment depicted in Figure 6), a gusset plate assembly 900 having three plates. The first plate 902 is fixedly connected to the beam Bm, and the second plate 904 is fixedly connected to the column C. The third (or primary) plate 906 is fixedly connected (welded in this embodiment) to the support Br. The third plate 906 is movably connected to the first plate 904 through slotted bolt holes arranged perpendicular to the centerline of the support Br. The third plate 906 is also movably connected to the second plate 904 through slotted bolt holes arranged perpendicular to the centerline of the support Br. There is a gap between the edge of the third plate 906 and both the beam Bm and the column C. The third plate 906 can be provided as a single plate part bolted to one side of the first and second plates 902/904 so that it only touches one of the first and second plates, or the third The plates may be arranged as two plate sections sandwiching first and second plates 902/904 welded to beams Bm and columns C.

图9B和图9C示出了可选择的配置,分别通过实体的销和螺栓来将支撑Br连接至第三板906。Figures 9B and 9C show alternative configurations connecting the brace Br to the third plate 906 by means of solid pins and bolts, respectively.

图9D示出了与图9A相同的梁-柱-支撑组件,在第二板904上具有平行于梁Bm的长槽螺栓孔,以及在第一板上具有平行于柱C的长槽螺栓孔。这样的配置可提供隔离从支撑传递到梁和柱上的力的额外的优点,如图2B所示的那样。Figure 9D shows the same beam-column-brace assembly as in Figure 9A, with slotted bolt holes parallel to beam Bm on the second plate 904 and slotted bolt holes parallel to column C on the first plate . Such a configuration may provide the added advantage of isolating the forces transmitted from the supports to the beams and columns, as shown in Figure 2B.

本发明的具体实施例不局限于梁Bm和柱C的连结。例如,图10示出了节点板组件的两个不同的构造,用于将支撑Br附连至梁Bm的中间部分(两个支撑Br在梁Bm相遇处)。为了简洁,示出两个不同的节点板组件,在一些实施例中这可能正是如此情形,而在其它具体实施例中构造可能是对称的。左手侧示出了节点板组件1000,其与图2A中描绘的实施例相似。右手侧示出了节点板组件1010,其具有的构造与图6A中描绘的实施例相似。The specific embodiment of the invention is not limited to the connection of the beam Bm and the column C. For example, Figure 10 shows two different configurations of a gusset plate assembly for attaching a brace Br to the middle portion of a beam Bm (where the two braces Br meet). For simplicity, two different gusset plate assemblies are shown, which may be the case in some embodiments, while in other particular embodiments the construction may be symmetrical. The left hand side shows a gusset plate assembly 1000, which is similar to the embodiment depicted in Figure 2A. The right hand side shows a gusset plate assembly 1010 having a similar construction to the embodiment depicted in Figure 6A.

图11是本发明应用的另一个实施例,应用于建筑结构的不同的部分。此处,在图2A中公开的节点板组件被用于柱-支撑-底板场所。应该理解,此处公开的全部节点板组件可被应用在所公开的图中的用底板代替梁的柱-支撑-底板场所。Figure 11 is another embodiment of the application of the present invention, applied to different parts of the building structure. Here, the gusset plate assembly disclosed in Fig. 2A was used in a column-brace-baseplate situation. It should be understood that all of the gusset plate assemblies disclosed herein may be applied to the column-brace-slab configurations of the disclosed figures where a base plate is used instead of a beam.

本发明的具体实施例不局限于建筑结构,而是可被用于多种通常使用梁和柱结构的承重结构。例如,图12示出了一般的桁架。所示的任何节点可根据在此公开的具体实施例来建造。通常地,本发明的具体实施例根据已知的建筑结构建造的技术来建造。Embodiments of the present invention are not limited to architectural structures, but may be used in a variety of load bearing structures typically using beam and column construction.
